Hi there!

I noticed that my cpu is getting much warmer using 10.5.6. I'm using XxX 10.5.6 Final 2 actually.

In cool state after the first powering on my Opteron 185 2x2,8 GHz has a temperature of 28°C/82°F. When booting in 10.5.3 it gets after a while in idle use to about 36-38°C/97°F. But using 10.5.6 it getsin idle use to 43-45°C/111°F ! Temperature is measured in BIOS since ther's no other way on AMD cpus.

I tried various methods, removed IntelNullCPUPowerManagement.kext and such stuff. But I noticed that AppleACPIThermal.kext isn't loaded in 10.5.6. i'm actually using version 1.0.5 of this in 10.5.3, is there a newer version out there?
